My view of the wonderful world of football

A very brief post this evening to highlight Linlithgow Rose’s historic Scottish Cup fifth round tie away in Dingwall tomorrow afternoon. Rose are the first Junior side to reach the last 16, and as something of a fairweather attendee who has thoroughly enjoyed watching them over the last couple of years, I’m a bit gutted I can’t be there.

So tomorrow, I’d hope and expect that Linlithgow put on their absolute best for the hundreds of travelling supporters, in arguably one of the club’s biggest matches in its history. In my view the Junior game in Scotland has a depth of quality which is perhaps not appreciated by those who don’t follow it – one hopes Linlithgow set a marker for that depth of quality and at least give the League Cup finalists an uncomfortable 90 minutes.
